Haaa at least the guys dealt with it, any bolts sheared off? 

The bloody cheek of it!

Only the lightest smattering of swearing had to be applied to get the job done.

The donkey's dick had to be removed around the back.  :grin:

That's opposite .:WR - we we're allowed to use that barn, it's in too good a condition for us.

The holiday cottages are a bit further away and *slightly* more luxurious.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

then noticed I had a headlight out, so thought so changing the bulb, i just changed the headlight



but the hole had got a bit bigger and inside was soaked



then set about the creaking rear parcel shelf supports



bit of sticky backed window seal and the creaking has vanished. .  :cool:
